Here’s what to expect.
Foundations Flow and Gentle Flow are designed for beginning your yoga journey. Poses are explained, pace is gentle, and you’re always encouraged to rest when you need it.
We offer hot, warm, and unheated classes. Look for HOT, WARM or UNHEATED in the class titles — all are wonderful options.
A yoga mat, a large towel for your mat, a small hand towel, and plenty of water. We practice barefoot — leave your shoes at the door and step on just as you are.
Doors open 30 minutes before class. Arriving 10–15 minutes early gives you time to settle in, meet your teacher, and get comfortable in the space.
We’re at 250 Mt. Lebanon Blvd, Pittsburgh PA 15234. Free parking is available right outside the studio. Easy in, easy out.
Heated classes require students to be at least 16 years old. Students under 18 need a parent or guardian to accompany them and sign a minor waiver.
Know what to expect before you book.
Our hottest practice environment.
Heated, but not as intense as a Hot class.
No supplemental heat. The room may still feel naturally warm depending on the season, class size, and previous classes.
Temperatures are approximate and may vary slightly based on weather, class size, and studio conditions.
30 days of unlimited yoga for just $30. No commitments,
Yoga, workshops, events, community circles, and real human connection — this is what we’re about.

Gather under the moon. Breathe, reflect, and connect with the community in a special ceremonial setting.

Heavy riffs. Therapeutic screaming. An unforgettable experience.

Live music meets restorative yoga. A deeply immersive evening of rest and renewal.

A free community event for mommas to move connect.

Giving back to Pittsburgh. Accessible yoga for everyone, regardless of budget.
We're so glad you found us. To make your first visit smooth, you can create an account and sign your waiver online ahead of time here. Arriving 10 to 15 minutes early gives you a chance to settle in, meet your teacher, and get comfortable in our space.
Absolutely not. No yoga experience is required to practice at YOCO — we have classes designed for people who have never set foot on a mat.
For someone completely new to yoga, YOCO Foundations is our strongest recommendation. Teachers spend more time breaking down poses, transitions, and the connection between breath and movement, so you'll have more support along the way.
YOCO Restore is another very approachable option if you're looking for something slower, gentler, and more restorative.
YOCO Flow 1 can also be a great fit for beginners who are comfortable learning through a flowing, vinyasa-style class. There's plenty of instruction and demonstration built in.
If you already have some familiarity with vinyasa yoga or are looking for a quicker, more challenging practice, you might enjoy YOCO Flow 2.
These are suggestions, not rules. If you're ever unsure, just ask us — we're happy to help you find the right fit.
Here's a quick guide to help you choose:
These are starting points, not prerequisites. There's no required order, and you're always welcome to mix and match based on what you need that day. If you'd like a personal recommendation, just ask us — we love helping students find their fit.
These are our four core class formats. Here's what each one is about:
YOCO Foundations
The best starting point for someone brand new to yoga, returning after time away, or wanting more instruction. Teachers spend more time breaking down poses, transitions, and the connection between breath and movement.
YOCO Flow 1
A vinyasa-style class with a steady, approachable pace. Movement and breath are connected throughout, with enough instruction and demonstration to help you understand what you're doing. A great next step after Foundations — and a solid choice for newer students who are comfortable learning in a flowing class.
YOCO Flow 2
Builds on the poses and transitions from YOCO Flow 1. Expect a faster pace, more creative sequencing, more challenging poses, or some combination of the three. You may spend less time breaking down familiar poses and have more opportunities to explore.
YOCO Restore
A gentle, restorative class designed for slowing down. It's appropriate for seasoned practitioners, beginners, people who don't think of themselves as yoga people, and anyone who simply wants a softer practice.
These are different experiences, not achievement levels. You don't have to work your way through them in order.
We designed our class names to make it easy to know what you're signing up for before you arrive. A class title might look like:
YOCO FLOW 1 | WARM | MUSIC
Here's what each heat label means:
Temperatures are approximate and can naturally fluctuate slightly. You can look for HOT, WARM, or UNHEATED directly in the class title when viewing the schedule. See our full Class Heat Key.
If MUSIC is not listed in the title, check the individual class listing for more details about that session.
No problem at all — we have options for every comfort level.
Look for WARM or UNHEATED in the class title when browsing the schedule. These labels are built right into the class name so it's easy to spot at a glance.
You can also visit our Class Heat Key for a full breakdown of what to expect in each environment.
We practice barefoot, so you can leave your shoes at the door and step onto your mat just as you are.
A light snack an hour or two before class usually feels best. Eating a big meal right before practice can make movement less comfortable, so listen to your body and do what feels right for you.
Arriving 10 to 15 minutes early is ideal for your first visit. Our doors open about 30 minutes before class, giving you time to settle in, find a good spot, and meet your teacher.
Arrive a little early if you can. Our doors open about 30 minutes before class, giving you time to settle in and get comfortable.
Bring water and remember to hydrate before, during, and after class. Taking care of yourself is always encouraged.
Let your teacher know if you have any injuries, limitations, or medical conditions. We're here to support you and want to make sure you feel safe and cared for.
For our heated classes, students need to be at least 16 years old. If you're under 18 and want to join an adult class, we ask that a parent or guardian comes along with you.
Students under 18 require a parent or guardian to sign a separate waiver, found here.
Parents are asked to email confirmation of receipt to hello@yocoyogacollective.com to ensure it is appropriately linked to their child's record.
Please check with your doctor before starting any new exercise program, including heated yoga. Your health and safety matter, and only you and your healthcare provider can decide what's right for you.
If you have any medical conditions, injuries, or concerns, let your teacher know before class. We want every student to feel supported and safe.
Not ready for the heat? Our UNHEATED classes are a great option to explore yoga in a more comfortable environment.
Still have questions? Ask us anything — we're happy to help.
The best yoga for you is the yoga you truly enjoy.
Practicing yoga in a heated room can feel like an entirely new experience—challenging, grounding, and deeply connecting. Many students say the warmth shifts their mindset and helps them tune in more fully to their practice.
Here are some reasons people love practicing in the heat:
Your body may feel more open and ready to explore movement.
The warmth creates a unique, meditative environment that feels different from a cooler class.
Heated rooms can balance out Pittsburgh’s chilly winters—or help you adapt to summertime heat.
The presence of heat keeps you anchored in the moment, noticing your heartbeat, your breath, and the sensations of your practice.
For some, the heat feels empowering and energizing. For others, a cooler room feels more supportive. At YOCO, we honor that every body is different and every practice is personal. That’s why we offer both heated and non-heated classes—so you can find what feels right for you.
